Abstract
A robot and a method for localizing a robot are disclosed. A method for location recognition of a robot includes moving in space; identifying a dot code disposed at a bottom of the space; and determining a location and direction of the robot based on the identified dot code. The dot code includes at least two reference dots arranged to indicate a reference direction. Embodiments of the present disclosure may be implemented by executing artificial intelligence algorithms and/or machine learning algorithms in a 5G environment connected for the Internet of Things.
Claims20
A method for localization of a robot, the method comprising:
- moving in space;
- identifying a dot code disposed at a bottom of the space;
- and
- determining a location and direction of the robot based on the identified dot code,
- wherein the dot code comprises at least two reference dots arranged to indicate a reference direction.
A robot comprising:
- a driver configured to move the robot in space;
- an optical sensor configured to identify a dot code disposed at a bottom of the space;
- and
- at least one processor configured to determine a location and direction of the robot based on a dot code identified by the optical sensor,
- wherein the dot code comprises at least two reference dots arranged to indicate a reference direction.
A robot system comprising:
- a plurality of different dot codes disposed at a bottom of a space;
- and
- at least one robot configured to provide a service in the space,
- wherein the at least one robot is configured to identify any one dot code among the plurality of dot codes, determine its location and direction based on the identified dot code, and provide the service based on the determined location and direction,
- wherein each of the dot codes comprises at least two reference dots arranged to indicate a reference direction.
